Answer:
Total= $292,520
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Zhang Industries sells a product for $750. Unit sales for May were 400 and each month's sales are expected to grow by 3%. Zhang pays a sales manager a monthly salary of $4,000 and a commission of 2% of sales in dollars. Assume 30% of Zhang's sales are for cash. The remaining 70% are credit sales; these customers pay in the month following the sale.
Cash budget for June:
Sales= [(400*1.03)*750]*0.3= 92,700
Sales from May= (400*750)*0.7= 210,000
Salary= (4,000)
Commision= [(400*1.03)*750]*0.02= (6,180)
Total= $292,520
Answer:
= $877.32
Explanation:
<em>The value of the bond is the present value(PV) of the future cash receipts expected from the bond. The value is equal to present values of interest payment plus the redemption value (RV).</em>
<em>Value of Bond = PV of interest + PV of RV</em>
The value of bond for Jasper Inc can be worked out as follows:
Step 1
<em>PV of interest payments</em>
<em>Semi annul interest paymen</em>t
= 4.5% × 1000 × 1/2
= 22.5
<em>Semi-annual yield</em> = 5.6/2 = 2.8% per six months
<em>Total period to maturity (in months)</em>
= (2 × 19) = 38 periods <em> (Note it was sold a year ago)</em>
<em>PV of interest = </em>
<em> </em>22.5 × (1- (1+0.028)^(-38)/0.028)
= 22.5 ×23.20871226
= 522.196
Step 2
<em>PV of Redemption Value</em>
= 1,000 × (1.056)^(-19)
= 355.128
<em>Price of bond</em>
= 522.19 + 355.12
= $877.32

Answer:
$9,000
Explanation:
Vernon can only deduct the actual lease expenses incurred during 2016, and that is only three months: October, November and December.
= 3 months x $3,000 per month = $9,000
This logic applies to every expense that is paid in advance, you can only deduct payments that apply for the current tax year.
